Many mothers have found that their baby's legs always retract inward and cannot be pulled straight, so they start to worry about whether their child has curled their legs, and even use some old methods to restrict the freedom of their baby's legs and feet. These are all unacceptable behaviors. So, how to correct a baby's curly leg?
1. Simple exercise correction method
(1) Stand upright, with both feet together, use both hands to support your knees and perform a squatting and standing exercise with both knees facing straight forward for 20-30 times.
(2) Bend down, hold your knees with both hands and do circular movements to the left and right, 20-30 times.
(3) Open your feet slightly wider, bend down, and hold your knees with both hands. Practice with your knees facing inward and stopping for 10 seconds each time, 5-10 times.
(4) Stand parallel with both feet. First, use the heel as the axis to perform toe abduction and internal rotation movements; Then, using the toes as the axis, perform heel abduction and internal rotation exercises 20-30 times each.
(5) Sit in a chair, try to hold the book with your calves, and persist for a certain period of time. If rubber bands are used to tie the knees together, the effect will be even more significant.
(6) Kneel down on your lap, collapse your waist, slowly move your feet outward and forward, and gradually straighten your waist. Do it 15-20 times.
2. External fixation treatment method
Older and severely deformed cases often require orthopedic surgery treatment, and satisfactory orthopedic results depend on carefully designed surgical plans before surgery. Both legs of the Luo Quan are accompanied by tibial internal rotation deformity, which can cause limb shortening on one side and short stature on both sides. Correction should be performed simultaneously during surgery. For leg deformities caused by special causes (such as renal rickets with low phosphate resistance), internal medicine treatment is often necessary. After the condition stabilizes, osteotomy and orthopedic surgery can be performed.
The traditional treatment of the leg with a rib cage often involves an incision on the outer side of the lower leg, a wedge-shaped osteotomy of the upper end of the tibia, oblique osteotomy of the fibula in different planes, and internal fixation with L-shaped nail plates or Kirschner wires, followed by external fixation with a plaster tube. Minimally invasive osteotomy and external fixation with Menghe frame for the correction and treatment of O-shaped leg and other deformities, with early descent (7-10 days after surgery), minimal pain, and fast recovery. The adjustability of Menghe frame ensures precise corrective effects, shorter treatment duration, and a reduction of 1/3-1/2 compared to traditional surgical methods. The technology is leading both domestically and internationally and has been highly praised by patients.
